Margie Zable Fisher: Embracing Reinvention and Purpose Through Writing and Resilience at 50

Aging with Purpose and Passion

What if your life could truly begin at 50? In this inspiring episode, Aging with Purpose and Passion welcomes Margie Zable Fisher, who took a bold leap from a high-powered PR career to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming an author. After experiencing career burnout, Margie found herself searching for new purpose, ultimately rediscovering her passion for writing—proving that reinvention after loss and starting over at 50 is not only possible but deeply rewarding.
Margie’s journey is shaped by the influence of her mother, a fellow writer whose struggles as a single parent initially led Margie to choose financial security over creative pursuits. But after losing her mother to sudden illness, Margie transformed her grief into personal growth, channeling her emotions into writing her first novel—a beautiful tribute to the woman who shaped her early dreams.
Beyond writing, Margie embraced new passions in midlife, including training as a triathlete—a testament to resilience, reinvention, and the power of stepping outside your comfort zone. Her story is an inspiring reminder that finding purpose in midlife is possible when you listen to your inner voice, take risks, and pursue what truly lights you up.
Tune in to hear Margie’s powerful insights on navigating career transitions, overcoming burnout, and embracing creativity in midlife. Whether you're facing a career shift, grieving a loss, or wondering if it’s too late to pursue your dreams, this episode will remind you that the rest of your life can be the best part of your story.
